摘要
Nanoporous platinum-cobalt (NP-PtCo) alloy with hierarchical nanostructure is straightforwardly fabricated by dealloying PtCoAl alloy in a mild alkaline solution. Selectively etching Al resulted in a hierarchical three-dimensional network nanostructure with a narrow size distribution at 3 nm. The as-prepared NP-PtCo alloy shows superior performance toward ethanol and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with highly sensitive response due to its unique electrocatalytic activity. In addition, NP-PtCo also exhibits excellent amperometric durability and long-term stability for H2O2 as well as a good anti-interference toward ascorbic acid, uric acid, and dopamine. The hierarchical nanoporoas architecture in PtCo alloy is also highly active for glucose sensing electrooxidation and sensing in a wide linear range. The NP-PtCo alloy holds great application potential for electrochemical sensing with simple preparation, unique catalytic activity, and high structure stability.
